I would be pissed if Downing is back, but am not willing to fire Vrabel over it.
I believe the right thing will be done and Downing will be gone.
We are in for a rough rebuilding year, but if done right, we could be back in 2024

I think the HC of Ohio State coming off a playoff appearance becoming our OC next year is about as likely as us hiring John Madden.
Depends if he wants to stay at the college level or not doesn't it
Titans are a small market team, and do very well considering. When the Titans make it to the playoffs, that is our Superbowl. Actual Superbowls will range between 20-50 years. Our year was last year, and was completely blown. Having said that you must know how pissed the "powers to be" are considering the new stadium.
More teams in the NFL are like the Titans than not, so you really have to love the sport, more than just being a bandwagon fan.
It's not a curse, but more of how the NFL works regardless of salary caps.
Yeah he’s gonna leave as head coach of one of the biggest college programs making 9.5 million a year, to take a demotion and GIGANTIC pay cut to go be offensive coordinator for the Tennessee Titans….
Vrabel and his antiquated strategy of run first, low scoring, keep it close then hope and pray you win it at the end, conservative when up by a few scores i.e. play prevent offense and defense, has to go, he can GTFO of Nashville.
Hate Downing but like Vrabs. It would suck to see him go... But at this point I'd really considering giving him the ultimatum that it's Downing or everyone, including him.
And I think that's what will come down to again. I think Vrabes would let him go though.
If he gets his hat handed to him in the playoffs again, anyone game on Jim Harbaugh coming back to the pros? I think I'd sign off on that one...
I'm on board with this strategy.
Urban Meyer is looking for a job...
Aren’t there like 64 coordinators, how ever many former coaches, almost uncountable college or “other league” to pick from.
this “Mike drop” comment doesn’t make sense like if you don’t have a replacement in mind, then Vrabel must be the best available. Nonsense.
he’s got the same issue JRob had in comparison to what AAS uses as a standard, he basically reached his peak.
I wouldn’t necessarily say that, we had a lot of adversity last year and Vrabel was a magician with a bunch of practice squad players. He was able to rally them to a 12-5 season. This year is a different story. Too much to overcome.
I think Vrabel is the coach that can get us to the finish line with a good roster. BUT, he has to get rid of Downing. As well as bunch of other coaches like strength and conditioning, oline, special teams, etc.
And I liked that Kerry Coombs, the secondary coach, Vrabel hired that went back to Ohio. I remember him being a fiery guy. The secondary got a lot more turnovers back when he was here too. Vrabel needs to go back to finding guys like him, and Pees.

Jim Harbaugh would have been a home run a few years ago. He's gonna be 60 next year though. No way he'd leave Michigan to come here though.
That's what's tough about firing Vrabel. We could do a whole lot worse.
I think Vrabel will be approached about the staff especially Downing...he will get a little leeway and see what the roster looks like with a new GM over the next season or two
Titans need to start calling out players sitting with nothing burger injuries
( assuming Titans were not in on the scam - which I think they are )
EXACTLY....
firing downing means nothing cause the next dude gonna be a downing clone
sadly new GM would have to hire OC and force Vrable to stay out of the O... NEVER GONNA HAPPEN
